you seem to be discounting or unaware of the possibility of a) automating a significant chunk of new buildouts, and b) domestic companies seeking a slice of the “sell open model hosting for less than competitors” pie. I truly believe the co

There is this overwhelming desire on the part of many people to ascribe agency to LLMs when what the LLM really is is simply not a magic world model but a stochastic text generator. For some reason that truth haunts them and they have a de

Let’s use the obvious example of a paint program. Clearly continuous 2D pointer input is an essential feature that would be almost impossible to replicate with only a keyboard. To step back a few levels, a node graph editor with many elem

Actually it is eminently obvious when the writer is a machine and it’s quite disingenuous to pretend otherwise (or, generously, possibly witless).

Why not return a WrittenBuffer<'a>? This can also be used to specify the methodset allowed or required plus any further type transitions out of WrittenBuffer, for example into a new CompressedBuffer, or similar patterns.

There is no cost imposed by wrapping a type in a struct to enforce a dependency.

I think my point is that types and “typestate” do not need to be two separate things. For example, in the Lua API for C, one obviously requires a Lua context handle in order to perform any other operations, so the handle must be obtained f

That sounds like a Wrapper<Func1Payload>, not a Ticket<Func1Call> that will become an extra parameter of Func2 whose only purpose is to prove to Func2 that you called Func1. Maybe I misunderstood something.

why not just create a wrapper type for the payload that is returned by func1 and func2 takes it as a parameter?

Yes and no. The big advantage of a GUI is having interactive 2D coordinate input support (aka a pointer, or gestures.) While I think a keyboard can be a great control surface, that’s one thing it really lacks and only GUIs really offer.

You’re presuming here that CEOs cause companies to make profit instead of serving as a scapegoat for their often unavoidable market dynamics (at best).

In my experience xhigh very often produces better results on the first try to the extent that the less cogitation-enthused settings actually waste more in the long run.
